Rough day to blow enemies away

[MatthewG]

I am the owner of this song: BandLab: Make Music Online (volume warning)

freestyle, just like a wild hairstyle. lifestyle is a life and style with decisions to make by every day choosing; that could be a life filled with abuses, excuses, animosity; as the velocity of considering of the troubles and problems one is facing.

with mic in the hand you could also blow a line going straight for a persons neck, back or to tear off one of their legs by lyrical word play.

slayed down in the snow your enemy is frozen dead ice cold, the light of the fire of the Lord can really pierce the soul.

all that is known; laid out in stone; then the written became flesh and by grace and having love for God and love for everyone in the world to reconcile the world back to God; was the need of Jesus and his blood; which was shed on the cross for you to be able to have newness of life in the spiritual inclusions of raising again with the Lord as God raised him from the dead by the spirit that was sent to rise him up again.

there many people who think that the end is the end while it is true; there is always an awaking somewhere happening out there; even if they don’t believe it yet.

therefore instead of hating on your enemies do good to them while the time is left; pray for all the people in the world. bring them to God and maybe he will put someone along their way to help them to find and to seek out God even on the most roughest of days.

no one in this life has it easily made we all in the same place in this world as each of us are giving life to live; freely, to decide like a freestyle or hairstyle or lifestyle,

Light side of the mountain

BandLab; BandLab: Make Music Online

poetry track

Wild horses on the range, the wind is invisible, visible the objective is deliverable.

Horses down the hill they go galloping and trotting along the wind, and how have beautiful the grace of God is as the light that is shining now starts to fade away.

Thunder, cracking with lightning above the mountain in the distance a primeval is in pursuit, with darkening spirits of the world with its minions that blind and contrast the heart into not seeing the truth.

White horses united together in protection from the darkness that keeps your heart from being bent into control power corruption dispensation of loads of insult not only by injuring to yourself, but your treatment of the others that are around you are you understanding the concept that are being made.

Accidentally, but with assistance from John, the Baptist, the witnessing one of the Lord of Nazareth, he is the one who comes to bring dividends to you, my friend, having paid for your sins. Now the world has been reconciled with clean slate is all souls now the choice becomes whether or not will you believe or just suggest that this is a crock It’s up to you seriously.

Dying in mortifying the flesh, getting rid of wrath, hatred, lasciviousness, adultery, greed, selfishness disregarding others, in the name of Jesus Christ you can ask your father for help.

Now becoming a child of God, by the death burial and resurrection, there in your lies within the spirit price with the Holy Ghost of God, in the baptism of the death of Jesus Christ of the Resurrection.

New life, in the spiritual sense is now born with, and considering born again by the spiritual means which leads to God, writing on our minds, and hearts in which leaves to the direction in which the gate is open to be let out, but the way is no hard to get in just keep on asking and praying for God to help you with the problems that you’re having in your soul and give him all your issues just him even in your addiction. It will be your choice to lay it down when you’re ready, and the Lord is ready to help in the end to keep it steady.

You gotta keep practicing so so you can Windex glass and make a clear picture the best you can with what you have in your mind man God bless you take care

A week ago I went with my wife to spread her mother's crematory ashes on the farm where she was raised.
In 2018 we had been up to do the same thing with her father's ashes.

The time we went up to the farm in 2018 prompted me to write a song.
I was thinking about what I may want done with my ashes.
These lyrics below are the result.

I imagined my ashes have conscious awareness.
Therefore winter under the frozen lake ice would be dark and silent.
In the summer the humming sound of boats could be heard above. Etc. ...

Link to the recorded track at the bottom.
A very old recording. My newer material is much more refined.
About 50 tracks available on the main page.


Title: Pour My Ashes
Track Time: 04:00 / BPM: 68

VS 1
Pour my ashes from the Narrows Bridge
Hear my bones splash in the water
Facing southwest -
see the breeze blow the fine dust
Gray clouds dancing in the sun

In the dead of winter -
I'll have darkness and silence
Summer's boats will hum up above
In time I'll find my way -
to rest below the birches -
in front of the home of my youth

I'll dream of watching - the sailing regatta
Colored sails against the sky so blue
And when the Lord returns -
I'll pull myself together -
to meet all the saints in the air

Title: Bookmark
Track time: 00:00 Tempo: 120 BPM

Verse 1
thoughts today like a stack of books
stories never finished
dig through the pile - flip to a page
fever now diminished

Verse 2
a week goes by - maybe a year
up a ladder to the top shelf
that dusty book in the corner
when I lay hands - I'll calm myself

Chorus
Like a bookmark on my mind
a quote without citation
did I get it right?
quell my aggravation

yellowed pages and dog-eared corners
cryptic notes in the margin
a page torn out - what did it say?
thought I saw that yesterday

Verse 3
Where's that book? - I remember the cover
bold white letters on a red spine
no, that's not it - maybe that one...
borrowed book? - nope, that one's mine

Bridge (slower, thoughtful, dream-like)
the feel of paper - the smell of leather
pipe in a tray - smoked years ago
worn Persian rug - and stained a bit
heavy curtains - hang in rows
(bridge could go after vs 4)

(optional) Verse 4 - verse 1 repeated
thoughts today like a stack of books
stories never finished
dig through the pile - flip to a page
fever now diminished

Chorus/Ending

Hey Matthew,

Unity of the faith - at what cost?

The call for doctrinal unity has gone out across the centuries. Are we there yet? (not by a long shot) Where is the problem? Perhaps it is in the assumption that the unity of the faith is doctrinal unity. - Can there be unity of the faith that overlooks doctrinal differences? - Does the Body...

The potential conceit of doctrinal individuality

Exploring the many facets of the issues of doctrinal unity and individuality. Issues range from the dictates of religious institutional tyranny on one extreme end of the spectrum, to freewheeling excesses of biblical interpretation on the other extreme end. Seeking balance somewhere in the...

Thanks for the inquiry.

No instrumentals, just my rather silly Wallermeddon Armageddon.
I teased my children when they were young by referring to watermelon as wallermeddon.
Asked my son if he was too traumatized by that to do some animation for me. No problem. LOL

https://www.youtube.com/@stevelundgren2938

I do have a lot of songs on Soundcloud. Few instrumentals. Several collabs and early songwriting.
Plenty of songs from just a few years back. Finally back in the saddle after some nasty health setbacks.
Another on in the works. Probably a month out til it drops. (as they say in the biz)

Had intended to publish with the lyrics as vocals. Hasn't happened yet.
My buddy Michael Odom couldn't wait, so he published this version as a gift to me.
Such a great guy.

VS 1
You don't like me - I understand
Had to get in my face - and make your stand
You’re angry, you tried to insult me
Some day - I hope you'll understand

In all of your yelling you said something telling
You called me a Dipstick
and something just clicked
You called me a Dipstick
and something just clicked

CHORUS
If I'm a Dipstick then you're a quart low
Running your mouth shows what you don't know
Played the big man and let everyone know
If I'm really a Dipstick then you're a quart low
If I'm a Dipstick then you're a quart low

VS 2
Dipsticks are made to read
It measures what's - on the inside
So if that's what you need I'll gladly oblige
Pull it out and see what we find

Pull that stick and wipe it clean
Really no need to make a scene
Send it down deep and get a good read
Now pull it out and see what we need

CHORUS
If I'm a Dipstick then you're -a quart low
Running your mouth shows what you don't know
Played the big man and let everyone know
If I'm really a Dipstick then you're a quart low
If I'm a Dipstick then you're a quart low

VS 3
That Dipstick says a change is past due
What's there is plenty dirty shame on you!
Yup, you're a quart low and it's starting to show
We recommend flushing the whole thing now

You challenged me to a battle of wits
But I won't fight an unarmed man
My calm demeanor is giving you fits
Some day I hope you'll understand
Some day I hope you'll understand

CHORUS
If I'm a Dipstick then you're -a quart low
Running your mouth shows what you don't know
Played the big man and let everyone know
If I'm really a Dipstick then you're a quart low
If I'm a Dipstick then you're a quart low

Repeat CHORUS

Some day I hope you'll understand
Some day I hope you'll understand
